Remembering 9/11...
Continued from page 1
“Studies have shown
that the 9/11 attacks resulted
in a wave of stress and anxi
ety across the United States,”
said University of Michigan
professor Ivy Tso.
The National Septem
ber 11 Memorial is a tribute
of remembrance and honor
to the nearly 3,000 people
killed in the terror attacks of
September 11, 2001 at the
World Trade Center site, near
Shanksville, Pa., and at the
Pentagon, as well as the six
people killed in the World
Trade Center bombing in
February 1993.
The Memorial’s twin re
flecting pools are each nearly
an acre in size and feature the
largest man-made waterfalls
in the North America. The
pools sit within the footprints
where the Twin Towers once
stood. Architect Michael
Arad and landscape architect
Peter Walker created the Me
morial design selected from
a global design competition
that included more than 5,200
entries from 63 nations.
The names of every person
who died in the 2001 and
1993 attacks are inscribed
into bronze panels edging the
Memorial pools, a powerful
reminder of the largest loss
of life resulting from a for
eign attack on American soil
and the greatest single loss of
rescue personnel in American
history.

“I had just completed basic
training at Paris Island for the
Marine Corp. I went on leave
in Yamasee, S. C. on September
7, 2001. The attacks happened
on September 11 and my leave
got cut short and I was shipped
off Meredian, MS. MOS train
ing for deployment. ”
